I had a work version of GPT do a very simple spreadsheet summary task for me yesterday. It took it 5 minutes to do it. I could probably have done it myself in 30 or so minutes. The heavily subsidised token cost of that task? 10 dollars. That's with a 10x subsidy. The actual compute cost was about 100 dollars. There's something seriously wrong there. It's going to crash and crash HARD. if people think i'm lying or are just interested. The spreadsheet had 45 sheets. Each sheet had roughly 500 x ...
I work in IT admin for a major company. Started teaching myself AI automation tools in my own time. Applied them to my workload, my output doubled, got noticed and promoted. Became the go to person for AI integration across departments. But here’s the part that sits heavy with me. Once leadership saw what AI could do, they started looking at headcount differently. People who had been there 10, 15 years. Gone. Not because they did anything wrong. Just because a system could now do their job che...
I have been experimenting with LLMs to see how well they navigate highly cross-referenced texts like the Bible. Standard models often hallucinate verses or lose historical context. To try and fix this, I built a free app called Biblians (no ads, no paywalls). I built it specifically for people who have questions they might hesitate to ask in person, or who simply want a 1-click way to explain a verse. While testing it, I discovered a fascinating denominational bias that is still lingering ...
If you ask it to create a recipe, you can click plus and minus buttons to change the amount of portions. You can connect it to other apps like canva. It hallucinates WAY less, and it explains ilvery clearly.
OK.. so I've had this reasonable PC sitting under my desk for ages.. NOT working because of some reason or other. But it was my baby as is housed in a lovely Soprano DX silver brushed case. SO, I swapped out the old HDD for a couple of SSDs (a couple of mirrored OS disks and a large 2TB storage disk) I swapped out the Nvidia 780ti graphics card for a couple of OG Nvidia 1080ti's. I pulled the whole thing to bits.. repasted the northbridge chip, southbridge chip and central CPU. Upgraded the fa...
10 year senior dev, vibe coded this in 4 weeks and counting. Something like this would have taken me a year+ before and ive always been a 10x dev.

so i kept using chatgpt to ask questions about my pdfs and notes, and half the time i couldn't tell if it actually read the doc or just made something up that sounded right. that bugged me enough to build my own thing over the last few weeks. you upload a pdf (or word, csv, image, or just paste a link), ask whatever you want, and it answers using only what's in your file - and it shows the exact page it pulled the answer from, so you can check. if the answer isn't in the doc, it just tells you...
